Astrology educator and consultant inspired by western and eastern traditions
Hello. I’m Shu – an Astrologer, Writer and Teacher with a passion for traditional techniques from the Hellenistic, Persian and Arabic periods.
I’ve been a dedicated student of western astrology for nearly 25 years and have trained at the Melbourne School of Astrology (Foundational Modern Psychological) and School of Traditional Astrology (Horary & Medical Astrology).
I’m inspired by all the cosmological perspectives around the world, although much of my practice has been focused on the Western Hermetic philosophy, mainly due to geographical circumstances. I find continual fulfilment in incorporating practices from my Daoist roots and the Vedic philosophy too, especially for astrological remediations.
My life as a grower, regenerative land custodian, mother of three and off-grid homesteader sees my astrological practice as a lifestyle, not just a livelihood.
If you’ve landed here for the first time, here’s how you can connect with my work. I’d love to hear from you.

Interpsycle Observator – Weekly Planetary News
Interpsycle Observator: 18 November – 24 November 2024
The new era is officially cemented into our reality with Pluto finally making its permanent move into Aquarius (20 Nov). If you’ve been following the astrology of the past couple of years, you might have heard that Pluto has been moving back and forth between the fringes of Capricorn and Aquarius since March 2023. With one foot stuck in the old world and the other foot dipping into the unknown path ahead, we’ve all witnessed the anxious uncertainty of our emerging times and the consequences of the old world demanding closure. Since March 2023, we’ve had a glimpse of the new era through new technologies, shifts in global collective alliances, reorganisation of bureaucratic structures and the changing dynamics of power between nations.
